Myra Brown , LMHC

Myra Brown is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who brings a compassionate, client-centered approach to therapy. With a decade of experience in the mental health field, she works with people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, ADHD, bipolar disorder, relationship and family challenges, grief, parenting concerns, intimacy-related issues, career transitions, and low self-esteem. She also supports clients facing caregiver stress, communication and control issues, impulsivity, isolation, financial stress, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, women's concerns, workplace difficulties, and young adult issues.

Myra emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and collaboration when building therapeutic relationships. She uses evidence-informed approaches and tailors each treatment plan to the individual, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to address symptoms and life challenges. Her process begins with establishing a clear understanding of a client’s needs, goals, and barriers, and then setting objectives that move the client toward meaningful change.

Myra believes change happens at the client’s pace and values open, honest communication. She works to motivate clients through the stages of change, offering practical strategies and emotional support while encouraging clients to engage actively in their therapeutic work. Her practice is focused on creating a respectful atmosphere where clients can explore challenges and develop skills to manage life transitions and improve overall well-being.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Myra Brown integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy to address both daily patterns and deeper stress responses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Trauma-Focused Therapy provides structured, sensitive work for those coping with past injuries and post-traumatic stress, focusing on processing experiences and building coping skills. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to strengthen a client’s readiness for change by exploring values and ambivalence in a supportive way.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative effort. Myra partners with clients to assess needs, goals, and personal preferences, and adjusts techniques over time so treatment matches what works best for each person.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit care into busy schedules, manage transitions, and maintain continuity of support across locations. Licensed professionals can deliver the same therapeutic principles through these formats, helping clients work toward goals with approaches tailored to their lives and circumstances.
